rmThis is a fantastic essay about Snape
http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/#static:bookseven/snape that is as good a starting point as any for my own personal "Why Snape" tirade, although I don't think I'll be writing such a thing tonight. It also manages to speek to the idea of what Slytherin loyalty is and how the notion is, in fact, supported by the books and not just the fandom.
Also, without saying it, it raises a very likely possibility
that Snape's patronus is, or will be, a representation of Dumbledore, and that it is this patronus that will allow Harry to hear some damn sense
